DANBURY - A panel discussion about what happens to protections for immigrants brought to America as children as a result of President Donald Trump’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Child Arrivals is planned Oct. 3 at Western Connecticut State University.

Carina Bandhauer, a professor of sociology, will lead the discussion about Trump’s decision to end the DACA program and what it means for 800,000 young immigrants here and across the country who are affected, according to a release.

The free forum, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Warner Hall, 181 White St., is sponsored by the WCSU School of Arts and Sciences, the Office of Diversity and Equity, the Office of InterCultural Affairs, and Connecticut Students 4 a Dream.

The panel is part of WCSU’s observance of Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month.
